Creating new Format for SAP Printing

Hello,

Just wondering is there a way to create a new Format for the Printing of ABAP Reports? The thing is the maximum number of columns set appears to be 255 but I have a report with a line size of 410.

Is there a way for me to create a format that suits my needs? I tried going to the TCode SPAD then Device Types and Formats but the option to create is greyed out.

Hope to hear from you soon. Thank you and good day.

Hi Chad,

I don't think it is possible,but we will have alternative like displaying report in XL file.

I had same req some time back,then we displayed data into XL File.

It is not possible to display more than 255 charcters in each line in abap editor.

Thanks
